Need help doing vanos test with INPA

[JBAshland]

Thank you Sapote and Tomba!

As for a bit more context/answers to questions -

A new solenoid pack from BMW? I thought these can't be ordered anymore separately. A "known" failure of the solenoid pack is the solder joints. Also the terminal "legs" that go to the circuit board a quite long and might cause additional stress on the solder joint. Adding epoxy/glue should prevent it. Your last error code might have to do with that.

You can still order a solenoid pack from BMW or other sources - it includes the Valve body and Coil Pack. For example: https://www.autohausaz.com/pn/143526...oaAlnqEALw_wcB

I also have the 'upgraded' Beisan coil pack with similar results.

Did you do any adjustment on the cam timing between these posts? Because they seem to drift.

Surprisingly, no adjustment was done. It is almost as if the cam timing slipped?

What I also seem to have found is that the Cam sensor codes 10 and 15 will consistently appear (after clearing) on startup after letting the car sit. If I clear the codes and then allow it to run and then check again, the codes will not come back - in the garage idling at least. INPA reports voltage to the sensor and RPM at the time of the error, and the voltage is less than 12 volts (usually around 11.4). It may be that at startup, not enough voltage as expected is getting to the sensor and it is sparking the error. Checking the mss54 wiring diagram, the DME main relay and fuses are being fed by an 80amp fuse whereas in my scenario, I need to check how the swap wiring is currently being handled from the battery and cutoff switch.

I am going to follow Sapote's cam check procedure (thank you for the detailed write up Sapote), check wiring, maybe order a BMW sensor, have a look through Testo and then I will report back with findings. Thanks again to you both.

[Tomba]

sapote is completely right about the the camshaft timing procedure.

Thanks Tomba -

It is a perplexing issue and it's made worse in that the errors (posted below) that occur can mostly only be replicated on track under load/heat - this is a swapped s54 in a racecar. The results from the Vanos tests as posted above can be replicated anytime. I myself did the Vanos seal kit rebuild, oil pump disc, new Solenoid (brand new after also trying a rebuilt coil pack option from Beisan)

and at the time figured to also reset/ensure cam timing was correct using the correct tools. If you look back at my earlier post #38 you can see my results after doing so are different than currently and are much more inline with what is 'correct'. That said the error codes still came back and the only thing that I then changed was switching to a brand new solenoid and coil pack (which interestingly enough did seem to fix it for a spell (I even ran the car on a dyno to check and it dynoed as expected and there were no error codes present afterwards. This past weekend, the errors came back and performance suffered.

The sensors are VNE (which I believe are same as OEM). I have not replaced the accumulator or crank position sensor (never had a fault code on that) but pretty much everything else. I am leaning towards opening it back up, checking the cam timing, adjusting and re-running the tests. I am also going to look at wiring in case there is an electrical issue. Any other thoughts would be much appreciated.

I work sometimes in workshops and come close to the unpredictable errors that happens with sensors. Even original brands have a lot of mistakes (Hella / Bosch / you name them). Last a N46 engine with an intake camshaft sensor issue. The engine would take a long time to crank before it fired up. Looking at the signal with an oscilloscope we could observe that the signal needed time to "turn on". Although visually identical and OEM Hella it didn't respond equally to a sensor ordered at BMW dealer. Resistance was OK. The only thing different was the magnetic core strength. The Hella had less attraction/force to a metal part that the one ordered at BMW.

As mentioned above on S65 this is quite common and left a race company were i regular work for clueless. When racing the engine it is possible that the natural frequency comes out of spec due to different engine mounts.

10: Signal: Camshaft sensor, Exhaust

I am not really clear what this means. I suspect that within a certain amount of time a low / high / falling or rising edge is expected and can't be measured.
In S65 track cars this one comes up many times when using harder engine mounts. The solution is BMW Motorsport Camshaft sensors which have a different weight. I haven't seen it on S54 engines though.

15: Camshaft sensor 1: Synchronization to Crankshaft

This means that the expected crank angle window/range when a rising/falling edge is expected isn't happening. In your case it might be caused by the missing signal from the error code above.

I don't know if this is equal to S54 engine but when starting the engine the camshafts should be adjusted to their natural / factory position. The ECU checks if both camshafts are within range (normally +/- 10-15°). If not this error code could be triggered.
On S54 the camshafts are set factory wise on retard position while in idle the exhaust camshaft is moved in the advance position to reduce valve overlap in idle conditions. I am not sure if the exhaust camshaft is set differently during starting.

As a side note, the exhaust position trigger wheel is the only one with a missing tooth and used for the identification of the camshaft position.

185: Function: Exhaust VANOS

I suspect this is triggered once the desired exhaust angle can't be achieved. I suspect an error band of +/-2° degrees. Might also be triggered once no signal is present

72 EVANOS1-late valve

This code is triggered once the connection between the valve and ECU is interrupted / disconnected. I suspect no current or change in voltage is being detected once activated.


Do you have TestO? I would recommend using the Serial job for MSS54 and read the camshaft positions. Maybe some strange behavior comes up.
Next I would remove the valve cover, check the timing as sapote mentioned above.
Next I would compare the magnetic strength of all crank and camshaft sensors. If you have still OEM sensor used condition, use it to compare. In doubt I would order them original from the BMW dealer.
I will ask the race team for additional tips on this topic. I think they always use BMW delivered sensor on S54 and never had issues in any car or engine mount

I am leaning towards opening it back up, checking the cam timing, adjusting and re-running the tests. I am also going to look at wiring in case there is an electrical issue. Any other thoughts would be much appreciated.

The result shows both cams are too advanced, and so I am with you that remove the VC and check the timing. The best way to ensure the timing check is done properly is to set the crank at TDC compression, then remove both piston covers, then turn the cams CCW to push the vanos pistons protruding out of the vanos module by about 2mm (overshoot their most retarded position), then install and tighten down the piston caps to push the pistons to their proper max retarded as the caps bottomed out. With the crank still at TDC, now check the cams with the bridge pin, and I suspect the pin won't go through the cams as they are too advanced. If this is the case, then just retime them again.

You get -6 to 43 while 0-45 is the desired working range. I do see 0-48 regular basis. For sure you could retard the exhaust camshaft to get more in spec

Is this test result showing that the Exhaust cam may be slightly advanced and the cam timing/vanos install should be checked? This is after a Vanos rebuild, new solenoid, new cam sensors, etc. I am getting Exhaust cam sensor codes as well as Exhaust Vanos codes again, so I decided to run this test again. I was previously getting more normal values for Actuals vs requested.

Yes, you should check it. It is strange it happened after a VANOS rebuilt as the cam timing should not be adjusted once doing this. But it might depend on who does the job. Which codes do you get? Sensors OEM or aftermarket?

Specifically VANOS oil pressure. You may want to get a gauge together and measure. There are some good threads around here on it.

I need That!

[Pklauser]

Oil pressure.

Solenoids.

[eacmen]

Thank you!


So, do you know what could be causing this slowness?

Oil pressure.

Solenoids.

[GNevarc]

Your adjustment range is perfect.
0 to 60 for intake and 0 to 48 for exhaust is the spec.

Your adjustment times are within BMW spec, but a bit slow in my opinion, mine does intake in 200-230ms and exhaust in 180-200ms, so there is some improvement possible there.

Generally we declared under 250ms to be good, iirc.

Hope this helps.

Thank you!

[Tomba]

For the 'drift' test, what is the expected result? I do not see any test results showing other than "AVANOS-1-Einheit vorzeitig weggedriftet".

No or small drift. My suspicion is,
- camshaft is set at a position
- none of the electric valves are activated for xx seconds
- after xx seconds the position at the beginning and end is checked against each other
- If too large difference is observed you will see an error

But I am not 100% sure.

[JBAshland]

Hi - Thank you Tomba for putting this together. I recently rebuilt my Vanos with Beisan seals, etc. and wanted to test it out. Not having access to Autologic, this was great. Question: For the 'drift' test, what is the expected result? I do not see any test results showing other than "AVANOS-1-Einheit vorzeitig weggedriftet".

Below are my results: 61 for intake and 47 for exhaust. I also noticed that if ran the test a few more times, the activation speeds seem to improve, but these are the initial results.
